Journey to the West: The Mountain Shaker

Chapter 101 Battle of Rotten Peach Peak 5

Flower and Fruit Mountain, Water Curtain Cave.

Inside a small stone chamber, Yin Lianli was sitting cross-legged in meditation.

Suddenly, a blue light streaked across and hovered between his eyebrows.

This is a second-tier communication talisman, also known as a long-distance communication talisman, which costs tens of thousands of dollars and is only used in emergency situations.

Yin Lianli quickly pressed it to his forehead, and a line of text appeared, almost revealing Xu Xiaolin's ashen face.

Why are Guo Xiqin and Chief Feng of the Feng Family Village at Rotten Peach Peak? Where is Cai Fei? Find out immediately!

It's understandable that Chief Feng went to Rotten Peach Peak.

But, Guo Xiqin appeared at Rotten Peach Peak?

Yin Lianli frowned—realizing he might have been tricked.

He quickly thought of the long box that Guo Xiqin had placed on his flying sword.

He scanned the area with his divine sense and confirmed that no one was inside. However, given the Guo family's resources, it wouldn't be surprising if they possessed some magical artifact capable of concealing the presence of life.

After thinking for a moment, I walked out of the stone chamber and walked all the way to the large stalagmite in the center.

Fang Yingyue was grading homework when Yin Lianli approached and cautiously asked, "Is Teacher Fang very busy? Why is there still so much homework to grade?"

"How can I not be busy? I have to take care of Haixing, and the two injured people need to go to tutoring classes. There are so many courses... It's not easy to make money," Fang Yingyue replied casually.

Teacher Yin has rosy lips and white teeth, and his appearance is definitely good, but Fang Yingyue, who always likes to look at handsome men, often ignores him.

Yes, it's the kind of ignoring, the kind where you barely think of saying hello even if you pass by. It's strange, but Fang Yingyue is too lazy to think about why.

"Uh...it's not easy." Just one glance and Yin Lianli's face immediately turned red. He said shyly, "I was just thinking, Feng Xiangguo and Cai Fei are also my students, and they've fallen behind quite a bit in their Dahuangtong classes. Should I go and tutor them...?"

"Feng Xiangguo should be awake. You can go over anytime. Cai Feiyao..." Fang Yingyue was, after all, a demon hunter. She was wary of Cai Feiyao's important mission today. She glanced at Yin Lianli and casually made up a lie, "His injuries are almost healed. He's at a crucial time and needs to go into seclusion for the next few days."

I still couldn't get any information out of them.

Feng Xiangguo could go anytime, of course. The key was Cai Fei. The Mind Ape Chamber was always in the deepest part of the Water Curtain Cave. Without the old dean's permission, no one could get close.

After thinking for a moment, Yin Lianli returned to his small room, took out a long-distance message card, and replied.

Above Rotten Peach Peak, Xu Xiaolin took out a brooch from his Qiankun bag.

This is a colorful phoenix brooch, with gold and silver threads, emerald feathers and red claws, lifelike. The most wonderful thing is the pair of eyes—two tiny blue sapphires, shining brightly, as if they might flutter at any moment and fly into the summer evening breeze with their full splendor.

Xu Xiaolin's fingers stroked the phoenix's wings, and he seemed a little hesitant.

High in the sky, Blood Hand and Ghost Sail, two Foundation Establishment cultivators, had replaced Pockmarked Face, and at this moment, the two were fighting Guo Xiqin to a draw.

Bao Xingqian and Chief Feng were evenly matched, and they fought fiercely from the south to the east. The outcome was still uncertain, but it attracted more and more cultivators from Sushanfang to look up and watch the battle.

On Earth, it would be a disaster.

Although Rotten Peach Peak did not have any fluorite at the moment, the occasional bursts of sword light and flames still illuminated the darkness. The thirteen cultivators suffered heavy casualties, and the screams that came from time to time made him even more horrified.

The only mobile force—the Pockmarked Foundation Establishment cultivator, with several bloodstains on his body, was now wearing a healing talisman and was sitting cross-legged on the Silver Leaf Swallow to heal himself.

Just then, a flash of blue light appeared, and a drop of blue crystal-like light hovered between his eyebrows.

"I asked a few people—the dean, Long Hen, Fang Yingyue—and they all said Cai Fei is in seclusion healing his injuries..."

The message was written in great detail, but the core message was just one sentence—it couldn't be confirmed.

Xu Xiaolin sighed, put the brooch away, and with a hint of disdain, tossed a few talismans at the pockmarked man, coldly saying, "Can you still fight? If not, all your disciples and followers will be wiped out!"

"I only suffered minor injuries." The pockmarked Foundation Establishment cultivator picked up the talismans, sighed, and stood up. "If I can't beat a Foundation Establishment cultivator, and I still can't beat a Qi Refining cultivator, I might as well just kill myself here."

Unbeknownst to Xu Xiaolin, the moment he put away the brooch, Li Zhu let out a soft sigh of relief inside the stone house on Rotten Peach Peak.

Then he immediately ordered Cai Fei, "Stop!"

?

The situation is extremely favorable. With the help of the "Tethering Threads and Flicking Finger Formation," the opponent has already suffered five deaths and more than ten injuries. If we make a little more effort, the opponent should collapse and retreat.

Should we stop now?

Cai Fei was puzzled, but he still put his hand down.

Li Zhu sighed, "The Foundation Establishment stage is coming, but this is just the beginning. You'll handle the whole thing; I need to conserve my strength for what's to come."

Before Li Zhu could finish speaking, someone in the air shouted, "Everyone near the mountaintop, get out of the way!"

A moment later, a powerful aura pressed down from the sky—the pockmarked Foundation Establishment cultivator, wielding a ten-foot-long spiked club, flipped down from the Silver Leaf Swallow, charging with all his might from a height of a hundred feet above the ground.

He cast a flashing talisman halfway there, illuminating Rotten Peach Peak clearly, and the spider demon on the roof was shrinking back into the house in fear.

With the force of a fall from a great height, the stone house would surely collapse if it hit solid ground.

Cai Fei dared not delay and directed the spider to pull up the spider silk, forming three layers of spider web in the air to slow down the downward force of the pockmarked face.

The people outside also made their moves. Chu Zhiyin cleaved out a huge ice spike with his longsword, Cai Zhengshan smashed out a second-tier fire explosion, and Zeng Fuhu drew out a sharp sword aura.

Amidst a series of loud bangs, the pockmarked man's attack was thwarted, and his momentum slowed considerably, though it still possessed the force of thunder and lightning.

Seeing that he was less than ten feet away from the stone house, Zeng Fuhu jumped up from the side of the stone house without hesitation, raised his sword with both hands and slashed straight up.

With a loud "boom," Li Zhu ordered from within Cai Fei's sea of ​​consciousness: "Conceal your breath to the fourth level and manifest the Five Elements spiritual power."

Cai Fei immediately used his magic to shut down the spiritual aperture, causing his outward aura to drop from the seventh level to the fourth level.

Zeng Fuhu had fallen heavily from the air, staggered a few steps and rolled to the ground, but stood up instantly and took a step back to his original position.

"Okay!"

Almost simultaneously, Ma Lian landed on his feet, his powerful divine sense spreading out, having already recorded the situation on the mountaintop into his sea of ​​consciousness.

Outside, three people guarded the three key points of the Three Talents Formation: Chu Zhengshan – a Qi Refining Perfection cultivator, Cai Zhiyin – a powerful Ice Magic cultivator, and Zeng Fuhu – a formidable Body Refining martial artist.

Inside the room were three people: a weak, seventh-level cultivator—undoubtedly the heavily injured Xu Ping'an; the other two were at the fifth and fourth levels respectively, insignificant in terms of individual combat strength, but these three also guarded a key point of the array, providing a continuous supply of spiritual energy to the people in the outer room.

With six people guarding the area, it's no wonder that his subordinates find it difficult to approach. However, they are no match for him. Normally, it would take five or six Qi Refining experts to defeat a Foundation Establishment cultivator in the early stages.

But there are spiders here!

There's more than one, and they're all quite rare Chun San Niang!

This creature is small in size and incapable of close combat, but its spider silk is extremely tough and impervious to water and fire, making it extremely dangerous when used to entangle and trap people.

The mountains are covered with spider silk; no wonder the children suffered so many casualties!
